i was trying to give a simplified version, because i've heard lots of "ifs" and "buts" but none of them over-ride that main flaw in logic.
jacob, et al, obviously thinks the job of protecting the island is VERY important... perhaps the most important job in the world. If you are charged with the most important job in the world, you don't just get off with "being tired of it." sorry, not acceptable in my book. dude is a godlike figure and nobody would be pleased or accept god to be like it, "fuck it, you're all going to hell this shit is boring and i'm tired... unless maybe one of you wants to do this for me... OH you just have to complete this thing that I can't do and i've got mad superpowers. L8ers. p.s. i just made you 'just like me' so logically, you won't be able to complete the aforemention thing either."
from what we've learned of the island's past, people have always either stumbled onto the island or been brought to it. Mother says, "i brought it here, how else would it get here," i think she also claimed to have brought the ship that carried real-mom to the island. what i'm getting at is that people have been on the island before and they either killed themselves off or got close enough to "the light" that they had to be dealt with by the protector of the light. this leads to: if random people come to the island and Flocke can manipulate them into killing you, hence putting the fate of the island in danger, then as the protector of the island, one should kill these random people before they kill you.
and i don't buy that, it's not the Jacob way or anything like that. if the island and the light are so important, then you gotta do what you gotta do otherwise it's not that important.
these are my issues, and i understand if they're not that important to anyone else, but i'm really unhappy with "the candidates" and "the light," and the way the show has turned. you can't please everyone as i'm sure carlton and damon are well aware.
